Visa Black Card

That Time of The Year Again

It’s that time of the year again, where everyone makes their new years resolutions, many of which are usually finance related.  The usually consist of making more money, getting out of debt, and saving more money.  This post, while not about the black card in anyway is just a friendly reminder with hints to help accomplish this.

Before I started using my Centurion card for most of my purchases, I almost exclusively used my Amex Blue Cash card.  It’s a great all purpose credit card with fairly expandable limits, but the cash back on it is great.  Between the cash back and tracking spending, this card helped a lot.

Also, the beginning of the year is a great time to get your credit report and score in order.  Every year, the US government provides its citizens with a free annual credit report from http://www.annualcreditreport.com.  However it only provides your report and not your score.  I try and check my score at least once of year.  Many times you can find a special where a company is offering the score for free, I usually use Go Free Credit Report for this.  It will show you your report and score, and you can get it free.

I have an American Express Blue Cash card and they just raised my interest rate to 17%. I have never been late on a payment and have excellent credt. Now my payments mostly go towards the interest. Not easy for a recent college grad.

Matt thats why always spend what you can pay…

Hi Admin Please Keep writing this site used to be fantastic Don´t let it down!

I agree. Site used to be fun. I guess it got dull for the webmaster?

Jim

What it boils down to is that the webmaster always admired the Centurion Card and liked to write about it and follow any news or deals or updates. This was done for aspiration or awe or just curiosity.

Once he was able to qualify for one and once he got his own Centurion card - what was the point anymore to “look up to” the card and its features?

It simply isn’t a novelty for him anymore, so what does the website do to further that?

Admin was attacked and killed by a bear whilst hiking in montana about 3 months ago now…

Matt, I hope you’re not serious?

Maybe the bear was envious, having failed to qualify for a black Amex card.

I miss this site. Oh well, nothing lasts forever.

AMEX Centurion Platinum Concierge is great setting up packages for “By Invitation Only” events. Try it! VIP, AMEX Perferred and AMEX Seating. My favoriate is for Award Shows.
